Chronic hyperammonemia alters motor and neurochemical responses to activation of group i metabotropic glutamate receptors in the nucleus accumbens in rats in vivo

Hyperammonemia leads to altered cerebral function and neurological alterations in patients with hepatic encephalopathy. We studied the effects of hyperammonemia in rats on the modulation by group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) of motor and neurochemical functions in vivo. Locomotion indu...
